The Prinsen Canal Apartment | Apartment in Grachtengordel-West, North Holland

“The location is unbeatable, the apartment was clean and fully appointed, the hosts were friendly and helpful, and communication was excellent. Access was a breeze. A great stay. I have only one caveat and that would be that the stairs might present a challenge for visitors with mobility issues. This is no way meant as a knock on this property or the hosts, but rather just a fact of the local architecture in Amsterdam Centrum. ”

“Very spacious apartment for two people! Living room was comfortable, with a lovely view over the canal. The kitchen was fine, but really could've used a water kettle, coffee maker, and ice cube tray. We couldn't figure out how to get the AC to work, but you can get great air circulation by opening the windows (though smokers did seem to congregate below the bedroom window). The washer/dryer was confusing for Americans - additional guidance would be appreciated!You're right in the 9 Streets area, which is the perfect place to stay: tons of great restaurants and shopping, in the most atmospheric neighborhood. Those 4 flights of stairs are no kidding though - you'll want to travel light, and plan your daily outings to avoid forgetting anything!”

“The property was very clean and had everything we needed. Our hosts were attentive to all the details and we loved the location. Quiet but near shopping, restaurants, and trams. The only real challenge is that it is on the 4th floor so getting our luggage up 81 steep steps was not easy. We are both over 70 years old and in pretty good shape so we managed but would have liked to know this detail before.”

“Perfect location and very responsive hosts.”

“Excellent location. Exactly as pictured. Clean. Would definitely stay again. ”

“So fantastic great room and facilities and great location. Very clean and has everything I needed ”

“Easy location and comfortable apartment made for a great stay!”

“My wife & I stayed at this property September 3-10, 2024. The property is in an ideal location & is in close proximity to many of the sites to see & museums to visit in Amsterdam. This was our third visit to Amsterdam & if we decide to come again we will definitely see if this property is available. It met all of our expectations. ”

“The unit has an incredible location in the Jordaan. Walking distance to everything (shops, cafes, bike rentals). There's an amazing view overlooking the canal. We didn't need public transportation given the walkability. For day trips, the train station is 30 mins by foot. The unit was a comfortable size for 2. Toilet is separate from the shower, which is located in the bedroom. There's no door between the shower room and bedroom. There was no bathmat provided during our stay, so we used one of the towels provided. Kitchen was stocked with tableware and cooking equipment to prepare food, but the kitchen knives were dull with the color peeling off so chopping was a challenge. There were communication mishaps: *Laundry - I messaged before arriving to ask if detergent was available. I was told yes. Upon arrival, there was none. I was then told I had to supply it myself. *Trash - I was given instructions to leave trash outside the door on certain days for pickup. I messaged to notify it was outside and to confirm I followed instructions correctly. I was told yes, but the trash wan't picked up and started to smell. When I followed up, I was told I can throw it out myself or wait until next pickup. I threw it out due to the odor. *Paper towels - I requested for more. I was told I wouldn't get more despite the weeklong stay and I'd have to supply it myself. Overall, unit was good, but given the price, the communication and supplies need improvement to make this unit a good value.”

“The place was absolutely perfect for us! We loved the location, easy to walk everywhere but not too busy in the neighborhood. The apartment itself was cute, clean, and had everything we needed. The stairs are definitely a trek but very worth it!”
